h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Spider's eggs, I think.

My keyboard played up again yesterday afternoon; it was even worse than last week. It is OK again now, fortunately.

i bought a webcam and i know it w*rks, but skype can't 'find'
the camera, only the mike and the speakers

I think it's in my speedos.

nah, that's just the mike

Ahh. I thought I could hear the ferrets singing into it.

ah, so there is a karaoke party going on, is there? oh well, nice weather for it

drifting along...
I found a South American tarantula on my attic door knob once. I'm told they hitch on your bananas as tiny fellows and then grow up in you attic. He was brown, furry, ugly as sin and with legs splayed, about as big around as a good size coaster. (I gently removed him from the house in a box. Any spider big enough to catch a full grown roach is a friend of mine.)

... with the tumbling tumbleweeds...

Oh, that explains it.

We were watching the 1991 'Dark Shadows' remake last night. I, as usual, poking holes in the script...young David was frightening his governess Victoria with a tarantula in a cigar box...I wondered where he found a tarantula in Collinsport, Maine...

Now I know. Mrs Johnson, the housekeeper, was obviously not watching those bananas closely enough.

Did nobody ever tell you that you should give the bananas a good shake before buying them?

I did that,and four fell off!

i had deepfried bananas tonight. no but icecream

I love the way you type, strangly makes sense to me.

I actually hear buzzing, bells, clicks when I read that. Trying to remember the robot that used to talk like that... It'll come to me

Fortunately, it works OK now again - until I spill some coffee or wine again.

There's a cartoon character in Penelope Pitstop that speaks like that.

he's a member of the ant hill mob and also stars in the whackey racers


or are you thinking of clunk from catch that pidgeon

Ya know, I think the pigeon guy was the one. Sort of, "Gleek, Blorp, Dink, Whirrrr, Zowie".
